REACTOR KINETICS WITH THE GROUP DIFFUSION MODEL

Technical Report ·
OSTI ID:4246595
A procedure is described for combining the calculation of time-dependent neutron fluxes with thermal analysis. A rather simple forward integration technique used for near critical systems is modified by timedependent perturbation theory for more reactive systems. A method for calculating flux and adjoint eigenvectors and eigenvalues is described. Spatial flux distributions are based on a generalization of the flux synthesis technique. (auth)
